great pioneer

It happened long agoWhen I felt the needFor a life of my ownI dreampt of summer loveAnd moving high up northBut no one would goSo I walked up the hill and lay thereImagining the day was nearI know I want to stay thereAnd be a great pioneer

I made a promise thenThat I'd find a placeWhere my world won't endGive me a piece of landThat will be my lifeThat I will defendIf I work really hardI will surely surviveI know my virtue is strongNo one could oppose a spirit so rawTo be a part of the stateTo be known as a great pioneerI keep the fires burningto let you know I'm freeMy heart will always be yearning

To be, a part of the stateTo be, a part of the stateTo be, known as a great pioneer

And if it all should endAnd I hear the callFrom the great unknownI'll need to go my wayLet me have my dayLet me be alone

I was dreaming here and lay thereKnowing that my time is hereI know I wanna stay there

To be, a part of the stateTo be, a part of the stateTo be, known as a great pioneer
